| Message | "Mr. Speaker, The five elitist neoliberal parties have shown in their decisions to vote "no" that what is more important for them is that the wishes of bankers and the capitalist-class are enforced on this country. By voting "no" they are voting against the democratic powers of the Hutorian legislature - the fact that the International Terran Bank bars us from proposing the nationalisation of industry is undemocratic, authoritarian and quite frankly, a national disgrace. No party in this country should seek to enforce their economic ideology on the people and parliament of this country through binding treaties." Nathan Butcher MP, Communist Party of Hutori |

| Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
